Safety When Performing Maintenance

Some of the most important safety precautions are given here. However, we cannot 
warn you of every conceivable hazard that can arise in performing maintenance. 
Only you can decide whether you should perform a given task.

•

To reduce the possibility of fire or explosion, keep cigarettes, sparks, and flames 
away from the 12-volt battery, all High Voltage system related parts.

•

Never leave rags, towels, or other flammable objects under the bonnet.

u

Heat from the surrounding parts can ignite them, causing a fire.

•

To clean parts, use a commercially available degreaser or parts cleaner, not petrol.

•

Wear eye protection and protective clothing when working with the 12-volt 
battery or compressed air.
